Ruud Van Nistlerooy Volley

This article makes an interesting point, with the race getting closer, Madrid is now the team playing together and Barca, normally the standard for cohesiveness, rely on an individual goals like Messi's. The truth is though, Barca remain a team that combines like no other. Manchester United seems to be improving on this, in all their greatness now. What with their young squad, quick one touch passes between Scholes, Giggs, Ronaldo, Rooney, and this team will beat more teams 7-1 as they did Roma.

That glorious sequence of passes is what we all watch and play for, right?

Madrid's goal by Ruud was a beauty, the volley and the passes that lead up to it. 'It represented what is now called the 'jugadon' (the big play) - a moment when everything comes right and a complex and pretty move results in a goal.'
